A lot of wards fall into this category. and I understand why.

It's what the kids want to do. They are happiest when they are messing around, running in the gym, playing basketball.

Leaders spend time and $ preparing activities, and then the kids don't like them. Why fight it?

My kite building activity didn't go over so well. Several of the boys just up and left and went to the gym. Then other boys leaving "to try and find [person X]".

Dodgeball and basketball, baby. Back to basics.
